Twenty-something girls vs. thirty-something women - S2-E17

Answer: Being that she's new to Paris, Carrie probably didn't know the restaurant's phone number or how to look it up. She could barely speak any French, so even if she could call, would likely be unable to converse well or understand the conversation. She was also upset/angry at Petrovsky when she impulsively rushed off to the restaurant.
